Okay to preface.
Every since I was a kid In the mid to late 2000s I remember my dad used to read me these scary stories out of this large anthology book.
What I remember distinctly about this book was it was much larger than normal books and was hardback with an illustrated sleeve. I think it was a dark cover maybe blue/black but I could be wrong about the color scheme. There were also illustrations to go along with the stories in the book.
I remember vividly one of the first stories was about this man that encounters a boy at night in the middle of a road. I think in the story the man gave the boy his jacket because the boy was cold (that could be wrong) but I believe it was something like that. But the thing I remember most of all was that in that story there was an illustration of the boy in a purple jacket and it was VERY creepy. It was nighttime and the boys skin was a blueish color.
Now before anyone says anything I am pretty sure it wasn’t one of those scary stories to tell in the dark books. I havent been able to get my hands on one of them to look definitively but from my research I did online I am pretty sure it isnt it.
Anyway thanks.
